Some of Fitzgerald's most popular short stories. "The Diamond as Big as the Ritz" was set in Montana, a setting that may have been inspired by the summer that Fitzgerald spent near White Sulphur Springs, Montana. During a train ride, a young college student boasts that his father is "by far the richest man in the world", and boasts that his father "has a diamond bigger than the Ritz-Carlton Hotel." "Winter Dreams" is regarded as one of Fitzgerald's finest works "for poignantly portraying the loss of youthful illusions. Many of its themes were later expanded upon in his famous novel The Great Gatsby. "The Curious Case of Benjamin Button" has been adapted to musicals and film. In 1860 Baltimore, Benjamin is born with the physical appearance of an 80-year-old man, already capable of speech. He lives an eventful life as he essentially ages backwards.
